I mean, every market has 2 or 3 whole aisles dedicated entirely to cleaning products and each seems specific for one thing only. I feel like some soap with a disinfectant is enough, but most people I know do a whole 3 stage cleaning ritual - soap (and rinse), disinfectant (and rinse), bleach (and rinse to finish)

    I mix bleach with baking soda into a paste for the hard to clean bits. That way you can apply it more thoroughly and just wipe it off with soapy hot water.

      Just make sure the soap you use in the soapy water isn’t dish soap as that could make toxic fumes if it reacts with the bleach .

        I’ll never cease to be amazed by how easily we can create impromptu chemical weapons just by trying to clean our homes with bleach

        Oh dang. Tbh I never noticed any fumes unlike professional cleaning products that compel me to wear a respirator. I’ll edit it.

          Oh ok, I dunno what it would smell like, I’ve not tried it 😅

          Just been warned about mixing bleach with other cleaners so I generally just use it by itself to be safe.
